Pinned
Prints of these little paintings are for sale!!

Note to self: take the art to the framer.
The dust, fuzz and other things make your house an incompatible location for this task.
It has not been enjoyable.

Please … just take it to the framer next time.

I should clock how many hours I just stare at it…

Working through an idea.
I like parts of it.
I think I need to drop it for tonight and work on something else though. The pink/reds need reworking but I’m undecided about how right now…

So I got my autism evaluation results today.

I’m autistic.

I’m glad I got this answer for myself. After ten years of actively trying to improve my mental health… researching, attending therapy (over and over), so many meds, hospital stays…

I feel like I’m finally able to just exist.

Left side of the spider lily is almost done.

These bloomed in our yard last year. However, the kids dug up the bulbs in spring not realizing what they were… so we had none this year.
They apparently symbolize death… but also rebirth. They felt like a warning and encouragement all at once.

Finally fixed the shipping. It updates live now and should save you a few bucks.

I also ditched the preorder format, now that I have prints ready for the art market I’m doing. I’ll be sending those out quickly and restocking before the event.
So you won’t have to wait long either 🥳
Thanks!!

I found out why my shipping wasn’t calculating correctly… Shippo doesn’t calculate shipping when an item is marked for preorder.
Sooooo… I’ll have to change a few things. I’m planning on having it fixed by end of day tomorrow. My apologies, I’m still getting used to my new hosting site.

I sold a succulent print today! Yay! 🥳
I’ve spent a few hours matting prints. And I should have time to paint tonight. ☺️

Anything bought today will be shipped out Dec 1st or sooner (it will probably be sooner if there aren’t many orders)

I had to prepare the inside before I attach the roof. But it looks good and sounds good so far I hope I can sculpt an adorable dancing pig for the spinning magnet. 🥰

Seizure activity has greatly increased this week.
I’ve been trying to stay on top of everything, but the drop seizures wreak everything. It takes hours to recover. I did not calculate for this. I haven’t had many seizures this year and thought everything was improving… silly me. 🫠

Prints arrived and I’m so happy with how they look. 🥳
I’ve ordered enough for the art market I’m attending Dec 6th.
I’ll have to spend a few hours prepping the show-bags later.

Best time to start a new painting is when you’re in the middle of another painting… right?

My second session for my autism assessment went a lot better than the first. I decided that I was going to take more time to look at my notes before answering. It was pretty repetitive. But I feel that we got all the info out and addressed by the end. I have my last appointment next week.

Treetop meeting~

Been experimenting with trying to combine my lineart style with this older more abstract painterly style I used to use more. This is also a new print that will be available in my shop soon!

Had my 1st appointment for an autism evaluation today.
There’s no way she got good info from that 90 min session of my blank brain saying “I don’t know” over and over.

Ughhhhhhh

I just wanted to read my notes but I was flustered that she kept asking ‘yes no’ questions. I couldn’t think of

With 156 followers, I don’t think this will go far. But I’d appreciate every repost greatly.
My husband is looking for a new job after being laid off and I want to work hard to make ends meet for our kids. We need to keep the house, buy food, and pay utilities. That’s a lot of money each month

We spent a few hours walking a local trail. And I tried out my dedicated camera with the polarizing filter. Super happy with a lot of the photos.
So many pretty colors! I love leaves so much!! 🍁 🍃🍂🌿

These 5” x 7” paintings normally take me 30 hours to complete.
I’m trying to speed up but I love taking my timeeee.
I make slow art.
I make the slowest art.
I kinda wish I could work like 10x faster. But they wouldn’t look like this. (A work in progress)

I just need to scream into the void for a bit.

My husband just got laid off.

My mind is running through all the worst case scenarios. What we’ve been fearing for months is now our reality.

Feeling a lot more hopeful today 💙🥳
Thanks for voting!
Especially here in Virginia

Congrats to NYC too!

Chickens 🧡

I love this little painting. It makes me want to paint more birds. But I don’t have very good references… besides flamingos… I happen to have a ton of those. Maybe those will be next.
